nand lay a small, white patcle:against the
whiter hem of her gown. Sho thrust
her hands out invitingly. Her eyes had
the look of a child's in the dark wait-
ing for the owing of the light. The
breath came and went unevenly through
.her parted lips. A happy smile broke
•over her face.
Sho picked the letter up and pressed
it to her lips several times before she
spoke to it, as if to ono who listened:

CHAPTER X.X.M.
A man on horseback appeared at the
-head of the road leading from ono of
'the cup shaped hills to the fazenda Ri-
scardo in S. Paula do Muriahe, in the
'province of Rio Janeiro. He wore a
:short" white coat and nankeen trousers.
A blue scarf, loosely knotted, showed
a few inches of darkly tanned throat. A
• wide leafed straw hat, evidently of
Brazilian manufacture, was pulled over
^chis eyes. Even in shadow the eyes were
'unmistakably Donald Sefain's.
Ho pulled in his horse and remained
!oat in a study of til) scene, while the
sunlight of a Bralzilian January bathed
'him iu an intense flood.
On every band as far as the eyo could !
.nice the land was prostrate under the
!stare of a pitiless sky. Thorn was no
(shadow near him save that of his horse
end his own broad hatted figure. " Half-
way down the hill ono bushy headed
palm and the prongs of some cacti lay
patterned sharply on the bare and daz-
zling earth. Below, in the middle dis-
tance, ho saw the fazenda, the ugly fac-
tory, the unsheltered square and cluster
cot outbuildings. Behind him lay the
waving lino of hills on which the coffee
abrubs flourished and from which the
.soft, monotonous chant and quavering
.of the negroes came to hint.
This scene made his life -the coffee
'bearing hills, tho unsheltered road lying
between them. Ugly, arid, lonely, were
,the words that rose in his mind as he
paused there. Tho very truth and force
of the artist in him made his heart rise
iu hot rv lt. Hatred and longing were
in his steady gaze.
In a few moments another rider camp
out of the plantation and drew up be-
;aido him. Ho was a big, fair haired
man, his lightht
loo eyes a strange
e anom-
aly
in his seuna brown face. When he
.spoke, his broad, musical accent con-
jured a vision of English fields on a
spring morning instead of the hot,
:slothful land blazing around him.
"Waiting for mo, Sefain?"
"No, I was thinking. I know you'd
follow. "
Tho Englishman looked at him, hesi-
tated and at length spoke:
"Sefain, you're making a bard fight
. here, aren't you?" He asked the ques-
tion abruptly as they moved on at a
crawling pace.
"Why?" and Donald's uncommuni-
cative soul, aroused to interest, leaked
for a moment speculatively from his
' brilliant eye.
"Oh, I can see it. You hold your
-tongue bettor than any man I've ever
mot, and I've knocked about a bit in
-this contrary world. But I know you
are simply sickening for a sight of home
--and some woman."
Tho words sent a dark flush up Don -
aid's cheek and his silence was cold.
"Fact. But don't suppose I'ni trying
to force your confidence, my boy." Ile
laid his hand on Donald's wrist. "I
speak this way, because -well, because
I'm deuced sorry for you" -
"You're wanting your pity then.
What tho devil do you mean? One
would think I'd been playing the part
of a sentimental°fool."
"Hold on, mi amigo. Let not 'the
Ingloz' quarrel and set a bad example to
these brown beggars hero," and au im-
perturbable smile distended Arnitage's
full cheeks. "I havou't`Iiuished. I'm
sorry, and I'm envious at the same time.
God! To bo not yet 30 and in love. To
know the world -only iu ono pair of
eyes anct comprehend heaven in the
stench of five slim fingers. What would
.eased

ly I was a fool and bo glad I was 1 }lug
your misery, my boy. Bo suck a fool,
Some day, maybe, when you're like mo
and nota living thing is really neces-
sary to you, when you know only the
sleek and deadly level of practical self
content, you'll remember and wish the
longings which tear you now could
come again and hurt you. That man
only is blest whoso happiness depends
Spon another human being."
Donald, looked at him in amazement.
He had never heard words like these
from Armitage, They touched him too.
Over his lean, brown face a dreaminess
stole, and just as they crossed the fan-
like shadow of the solitary palm upon
the roadway he moved his companion's
hapd from his wrist and gripped it.
"Armitage," he said, roused for the
moment out of his self reserve, "I al-
most wish, then, you could love a wom-
en as miserably, as passionately, p6r-
haps as hopelessly, as I do. She is the
desire of my life and its greatest good."
"I knew it. Tho signs never fail.
And now I want to talk to you. ;We
might as well here as at the !amends.
Why don't you sell out to mo or to
Morgan, take what you've made and go
home?"
"Home?" echoed Donald, unable to
repress the note of hope and yearning in
his voice at sound of that sweet word.
'"Why?'"
"Do you think this" -with a con-
temptuous gesture toward• the group of
low, tiled roof buildings and the baro
land -"pays for the, pain in the heart?
As for the money you melte, it's not
much for the struggle. The days are
gone when big fortunes were made in
coffee planting. It doesn't matter much
whether my bones eventually lie under
this sen or Korea's, and it's the same
with Morgtn. But you -well, there's a
woman you love far away from this
wilderness. For God's sake, seize your
happiness, sell out and go to her."
"I won't," said Donald quietly.
"I've a task to accomplish."
"Qthor than the averaging of a,proftt
of 8 shillings and tuppence on a bag of
60 kilograms!"
"Other than that. I am content with
these medium profits. I came hero not
only to conquer or et least disarm, for-
tune, but to conquer myself. I'll stay
the time I intended."
They rode On silently. An olda
e
gross
with a child on her hip stopped iu the
middle of the road, her patina outstretch-
ed, and, following a curious custom,
cried iu Spanish:
"Bless me!"
"God bless you!" said Armitage, and
she went ou.
A cart drawn by goats and filled with
firewood passed them. Black vultures
as motionless as if fashioned in basalt
looked down from the stump of a dead
tree as they neared the fazenda.
Close by the details of the place worn
even more unlovely than the misty
whole seen from the hilltop. Cattle
grazed loose under the charge of an aged
negro squatting iu the sun and slum-
lering with Ms almost fleshless hese
tgaiust his knee. The gates through
which the two oleo posed were, liko
everything else about the place, con-
structed to do what was required of
them with the least possible exertion,
and having been swung back as if an -
der protest when the horses were pushed
against them they returned only half
way with a screech eloquent of rusty
hinges and stuck fast in a tuft of weeds.
A largo fancily of cats too attenuated to
frolic strolled languidly around the
paved square or sat winking their half
blind eyes in the glare. From Rome of
the white laborers' cottages came the
unwell of pork and frying broad. OM' it
all the sun flamed hard.
Donald and Armitage alighted at the
factory, and from this camp the low
crooning, the murmur of mixed gong,
heard wherever the negro works.
"I'm dead for a siesta. My clothes
seem weighted with stoues." said Armt-
tago, yawning. • "I was up . before the
sun this morning -long before it. Ss
were you,." ho broke off suddenly,
"and, by George, you. look dead beat,
You'd bettor go a little easier. Do as I
do, Sefain. After your coffee Ito down."
"I'm going to," said Donald liet-

"Yes, but sleep. Don't lie and think.

looked upon it uow the quiet place

freat his tormented heart and to meet it
with almost servile protest.
He had done what he could to make
the house habitable. It was even a pest-

Morgan' were content, Thu laced bam-

Tomas entered with the coffee and a
dish of peppered chicken, but midway
across the room he paused and let his
melancholy eyes rest upon his master.
Ho was asleep, his head fallen back and
exhaustion marking the features. Sleep
was better fol' him than peppered chick-
en, Tomas reasoned, and remained con-
•siderately quiet, his gaze as melancholy
but more watchful as he lifted a piece
of the neat to his lips with his fingers
and rhythmically licked their brown
tips. It was indeed well for his master
to slumber on, and if he took another
piece there would still be enough.
Before he could enaferialize the
thought voices outside surprised him.
Ho hurried to the door and met the
,Spanish housekeeper of Senor Morgan
about to enter. At a little distance be:
hired her he ala a small group of peo-
ple, two strange women, evidently "las
and with them Senor Armitage.
At the entrance to the court stood an ox
cart in which the visitors must have
come from the station. The heavy beasts
were rubbing their noses together, mov-
ing the iron bolls upon their Dollars and
sending alonely clang through the sun-
light.
"Mother of God, the senor will be
surprised!" Morgan's housekeeper was
saying in shrill tones, swaying from hip
to hip in her excitement. "He will
shout and thtow his hat into the air for
joy whee.he knows. Ah, you will all

toll the senor that his love has comp to

• "The senor sloops as if the sen had

a •glance of murder, for he hated the
housekeeper, who annoyed his reveries
by talking too much and knew so well
how to bonne precise aim when she threw

looked down at Donald. Often during
the travail r' the long journey so im-
pulsively undertaken she had wondered
what emotions would come to her in
this moment when the faced the strug-
gler who needed and loved her, the man
she loved.
Donald's lids showing' blue against
the broken and sunken face, the clam -

the parched lips parted, the unguarded
heart crying out its, distress iu the fixed
expression of sorrow and appeal, were
like so many chords around her heart

rick, with the apparently rickety ae-
conapaniment of crude appliances made
familiar years ago in the oil regions ---a
small reversing engine, a rusty locomo-
tive boiler, usually without a stack and
leaking at every seam; the ponderous
wooden walking beam slowly oscillat-
ing night and day, stopping only to give
place to the use of the bull wheel when
the drill is raised and the sand pump is
lowered or a newly dressed bit is put In

derrick, its lofty top lost in the dark-

the temper screw after each stroke, con-
trolling the bit at the end of a rope per-

form a weird sight. Accidees are fre-
quent, and the slightest carelessness
may result in dropping the tools, the
recovery of which requires patience and
often great ingenuity.-Cassier's adage -

PRESSED TO DEATH.
Fearful Punishment That Obtained
teener Old English Law.
Under the old English law if a pris-
oner stood mute and failed to plead to
the indictment a jury was impaneled
to determine whether his conduct -came
from obstinacy or from a natural im-
pediment_ According to Blackstone, if
the prisoner was found to be obsti-
nately mute and the indictment was
for high treason It was settled that
his silence was equivalent to a convic-
tion and that judgment and execution
should follow. This wane rule applied
to petit larceny and misdemeanors, but
upon appeal or indictments for other
felonies or petit treason, aceording to
the ancient lav, the prisoner was not
deemed cone -need; but, because of his
obstinacy, be received "tile terrible
sentence of penance or Peine" and was
pressed to death.
Blackstone thus describes this pun-
ishment:
"That the prisoner be re-
manded to the prison froth, whence he
curie and put i:t a low, dark climber
and there be. laid on his back on the
bare floor, naked unless decency for-
bids; that there be placed upon his
body as great a weight of iron as 1,e
could bear and more; that he should
have no sustenance, save only on the
first day three Morsels of the worst
bread, and on the second day three
drafts of standing water that should
be nearest the -prison door, and in this
situation this should be alternately
his daily diet till he died or (as an-
ciently 'the judgment ran) till be an-
sweretl"
During the trials for witchcraft in
New Iunglaund a respectable citizen be-
ing so accused, knowing that by rea-
son of the excitement of the tines a
plea of not guilty and trial would re-
sult In a conviction with confiscation
of property, and the sante judgment
would follow a.piea of guilty, refused
to plead, thereby preventing a convic-
tion and enabling Itis family to retain
his property. The court ordered that
he be pressed because of his obstinacy.
The order was carried out and the
victim died.
